Hot Sync does have things that are special and unique about it, but it’s quite clear that we’re not talking about the theme. The game features on its reels mostly images of classics, meaning of fruits and other pub icons.

The only ones that are different are the symbols with features attached, and even those are just simple logos. I’m not saying that the game doesn’t look good, Quickspin seems to be capable of making even a classic theme gorgeous, but the choice of symbols doesn’t show much imagination.

The list starts off with the Wild Logo, the Hot Sync Wild logo, the Bonus Game logo, and then we get the diamond, the 7, the star, the bell, melon, plum, lemon and cherry.

These are all things that you could find in any other classic game. I guess they wanted the focus to be on the features, not the theme, but I still think that a more fun topic could’ve improved the slot.

Developer

Quickspin is by no means a huge developer, not yet anyway. The company, which is coming from Sweden, has been designing superb slot machines since 2012, and its heritage includes some DNA from Net Ent, since its CEO also used to work there.

It shows in the design quality and in the features which are offered, or in their quality at least. I can recommend plenty of slots from their collection, but I’ll stick with Gold Lab and Genie’s Touch for now, two games that they released in 2016.

How To Play It

Given the fact that you have 20 lines that need to be active each spin, you need to spend anywhere between $0.20 and $100 per round. You select the total bet from a menu, and depending on the total amount that you go with, you have to wager $0.01 to $5 per line.

Even with the choice of symbols coming from the classic side, you’re still getting here a good design, and you shouldn’t have a problem playing it, unless you’re really against pub style symbols. The interface style is typical for Quickspin, and it’s quite easy to use if you’ve played slots before.

Special Features

A total of three feature symbols are used. One of them is a Hot Sync Wild, which seems to give the slot its name. You have these symbols on the reels with their own logos, and they trigger a Hot Sync Respin when you get a minimum of two visible.

The reels that have triggered the feature become hot for the respin, getting extra wilds on them. You get identical symbols on all reels that are hot, so you also get increased chances to win something. If new Hot Sync Wilds land, then those reels also turn hot and the respins continue.

You’re also getting a regular Wild symbol, not just the special ones. You can use these to form new combinations, together with other types of symbols or just with the wilds. On their own, the wilds can pay up to $5,000.

The free spins will come via the Bonus Game symbol, which you have as a scattered icon on the middle three reels during paid spins. You get 8 free spins from them, with hot reels if there are any Hot Sync Wilds that land on them.

Maximum Payouts

You get paid the most if you have five wild symbols on one of the active lines. The reward can reach $5,000, if the wager was set to $100.

Summary

Hot Sync has its cool features to get your attention, and it’s good that it does, since its theme clearly wouldn’t.
